Good point. However, there are three types of minor scales that I know of: natural minor, harmonic minor, and melodic minor.mbncp wrote:Ok with the Gm chord, but I feel it more 'natural' playing the G Dorian scale than the G Minor scale. That Eb just doesn't fit.
G Dorian G A Bb C D E F
G Minor G A Bb C D Eb F
The G minor scale you give above is the natural minor. I agree that the Eb doesn't fit, since in this case, the IV chord is C major.
The harmonic minor chord is G A Bb C D E F# G. In this case we flat the 7th (F# to F) to get the Gm7 chord, which is common. This fits the chords in the sequence.
(This is way more thinking than I usually do in my music!
